REINCARNATION GODDESS OF MEDICINE
200. Ask Again
Chang Rui sat pondering until the morning before he finally realized that it was morning and the sun had risen completely showing itself proudly up there.
Chang Rui felt that it was very difficult to live here, there was no definite clock and he could only guess what time it was at this moment.
At this time, winter was coming soon, they could not continuously depend on food from the outside.
The city is narrow, has no land for extensive farming. If he wanted to then he could only take the land a bit behind.
It is not too fertile said the locals, how should they make themselves not experience dependence on others anymore?
They can't change around the village anymore, especially during winter. When winter came, even the surrounding villages were difficult to meet their own needs and expecting them to sell it to Wu City would then be difficult.
Even if it could, it would be very expensive. They could last for a while before eventually turning into a loss that they could not bear.
But, there was something to be proud of from Wu City but it was unfortunately underutilized. Wu City borders the South Sea.
If not wrong, then there should be a lot of fish that can be obtained. It's just that, in this City there are too many rumors that people say that they should not go to sea otherwise they will not return.
Chang Rui suddenly thought of one more thing, which was very important. Since it borders the South Sea, doesn't this mean they border other countries ?
It would be very easy for the enemy to find a weak point here, not only did they have to make a gate at the front but everything. Really troublesome.
This city had tested his patience many times but somehow he always returned to this City and felt very close to this City.
He had expended a lot of energy and feeling only to rebuild this half-destroyed City.
No, rather this completely destroyed City. I don't know because he likes the beautiful view of the city.
Or because he felt guilty about Chang Yue Qing's mistake, after all at this moment he bore the status of belonging to Yu Cheng Qing and people knew that he was the grandson of Chang Yue Qing even if he was not.
He wanted to stop but could not do so could only continue this grueling activity in the hope that someday, Wu City would not lose to the Capital.
Chang Rui called Jiu Qing and Fu Jin Yang and the two of them came very quickly even beyond his expectations, both of them were very excited.
"I'll discuss the winter coming in a few weeks. " Chang Rui said calmly.
"I know, you want to discuss soldiers don't you ? I've trained them and they've been working hard, from 4am training up and down the hill with me until 6am and continuing training until 10pm.
They only sleep 6 hours every day, can not directly indeed. It's just that there's a significant change. At first they almost died all, but in the end after today's practice, they were fine. " Say Jiu Qing gave his report.
Chang Rui who was listening to this nodded his head in satisfaction, although it could not be said to be the best then as long as they could survive through this winter then they would be fine.
"What about the construction of houses and gates and the construction of places for weapons ?" Ask Chang Rui.
"Good, everything went very smoothly according to your estimates. It's just that there are some things that are very difficult to do. You know for yourself, some of these things have no picture in their head so have to explain it longer and repeatedly improve it. " Fu Jin Yang said with a sigh.
"Can you draw ? " Task Fu Jin Yang in surprise.
"Of course, but my abilities aren't very good." Chang Rui said dejectedly and his gaze was somewhat dim.
"I want to ask you to help me buy some canoes in the Capital to harvest fish in the ocean. " Chang Rui's orders.
"For what ? No one wants to go to sea. " Say Jiu Qing with a frown on the forehead.
"You don't want to have to be like that, the more scared it becomes, the more you can't move forward. There should be a push from one of them, I will go to sea for the first time and prove it to them. Then, the food will be preserved with salt. We can also harvest salt from the oceans to sell to the Capital. " Chang Rui said.
"Isn't everything a hassle ? Among them, no one knows about this. " Reply Fu Jin Yang.
"I will set an example for them. " Chang Rui replied seriously.
"Can't be ! Danger to do ! I can't let you take such a huge risk just for that !" Fu Jin Yang exclaimed with widespread worry.
"No need to worry, it's not my first time. I've had experience. " Chang Rui said casually.
Eventually they come to a mutual agreement - instead of not knowing that food is the lifeblood of a city.
So, they should be able to have their own resources otherwise they would not be able to survive sooner or later.
After that, Chang Rui went back to Nangong Li's room with a feeling of anxious and doubtful heart mixed into one and finally arrived in front of Nangong Li's room.
His hand felt a leg and could not knock on Nangong Li's room door. The purpose of his arrival here was to inquire back, asking about whether they had met in the past.
"If you want to enter then Miss can directly enter, it is a message left by Master. " Voice from behind and as Chang Rui looked back, Chang Rui finally realized that they had met in the past.
This was Nangong Li's subordinate and he nodded awkwardly. Chang Rui opened the door of Nangong Li's room which was always dimly lit, only illuminated by a dim candlelight.
"What made Miss Chang come to my room so early in the morning ?" Nangong Li asked calmly and sat back to his back so Chang Rui could not see his expression.
Chang Rui felt that his hair was standing on end, although he felt that Nangong Li was easy to approach before and now it seemed that he was wrong.
Since last night, Nangong Li's attitude towards him was very cold as if he had turned into someone else.
Chang Rui clenched his hands inside his clothes and attempted to gather all of his guts.
"Sorry to have interrupted Mr. Nangong's time, the purpose of my arrival here might make Mr. Nangong feel uncomfortable but I really can't bear to say this. " Chang Rui said.
"If you feel you can't stand it, just say it. " Reply Nangong Li.
"Actually.... is it true that we have never met each other in the past ?" Chang Rui asked somehow for the umpteenth time asking this.
